1.God created persons and persons by definition/nature are free to sin

Objections and replies:

a.Why didn't God make persons unable to sin?

i.Because that's a contradiction: persons by nature have the
ability to sin.

b.Doesn't this mean God is not omnipotent?

i.It is no limitation on God's power to say he couldn't have
made persons unable to sin, because this is a contradiction.

ii.That God can't do the impossible is no limitation on God's
power or freedom;

(1)It is not a limitation to say God can't make a round
square or a free being who can't sin, because there is
nothing there to be done that God can't do.

c.Why didn't God make persons who could sin, but in fact, never
would sin?

(1)Omniscience allows God to survey the future possible
worlds and choose to create those people who could sin,
but would choose never to sin.

ii.But freedom is genuine openness: God can't know how
persons will freely act since how they will act only becomes
real in the act of choice, and only then is it knowable. Before
a person freely chooses to act, there is nothing to know.

iii.Thus there is no limitation on God's omniscience to say God
doesn't know how people will act, because there is nothing
there to be known until they act.

d.Why did God make persons knowing they would sin. It isn't worth it.

i.Many would argue that it is worth it.....

2.A world in which there are persons (able to sin) who enter into a
personal relationship with God is a better world than one without
persons (and no possibility of sin and not ability to enter into a
personal relation with God)

3.Thus a world in which sin is possible is part of the best possible world
